Hacking the Boeing 787 -- cartoon

As a frequent traveler, I couldn't help being a little worried by this post on Bruce Schneier's Security blog which discusses several news articles including this:

According to the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration, the new Boeing
787 Dreamliner aeroplane may have a serious security vulnerability in
its on-board computer networks that could allow passengers to access
the plane's control systems.

But reading his post reminded me of a great cartoon by Ritsch and Renn, originally published in the German IT magazine C'T.

The full original (in German of course) is here. The English adaption is from the ComPilots website.
